Now…now…now…here is a piece of information that will tell you a bit about the wily ways of some TV folks. If you guys remember, a few days back, a suggestive article was published by a media publication which stated that an actor and actress apparently were caught in a physically entwined position in the green room on the sets of their show. Though the write-up did not identify the actors, but there was enough between the lines for us to infer that the couple being talked about was Kushal Tandon and Niaa Sharma who play the roles of Virat and Maanvi respectively in Star Plus’ Ek Hazaaron Mein Meri Behna Hai (Cinevistaas). Kushal and Niaa followed up by speaking to another entertainment website, saying that they are “disgusted” by the news and there is no truth behind it. So far so good…what really set the cat amongst the pigeons was this piece of info that we received very recently. Confirmed sources have told us that it was none other than co-actor from the same show, Karan Tacker (Viren), who planted the news against Kushal and Niaa. Reason? Here goes the source, “Karan of late has been insecure with Kushal’s rising screen presence in Ek Hazaaron Mein. The media has also reported it. Hence he did this act.” And the story doesn’t end here… The same source further stated that Karan pulled the ploy with the help of his three reporter friends who work in different media organizations (all report on what's happening in the lives of TV stars). “They all pulled it together,” stated the source. We did call up Karan to get to know his side of the story who said, “All is rumour and baseless. I don’t know who is talking behind my back.” He chose not to talk any further. Moving on…it is also believed that Kushal and Niaa are very much aware of Karan’s act. “They know it but can’t say anything as there is no concrete proof against Karan,” the source said. We called up Niaa, who shared with us, “I have heard about it but I don’t want to comment anything. All I want to say that whoever has planted the story against me will rot in hell for sure.” Wow…these are some tough words. Next, we rang up Kushal. “Boss...I don’t care about it. But whoever has done it is supremely insecure and a bad human being. I call him a HIB-hormonely imbalanced bit**.” Okay…it is clear that the ambience on the sets of Ek Hazaaron…is certainly not a cordial one. So will all this hungama affect the show? “I don’t think so. Show is based on content…so it won’t get affected by all such things. I have heard about all this drama and my seniors, working on the show, are looking into the matter,” said producer Siddharth Malhotra. So this is the entire development behind the scenes of Ek Hazaaron…An actor joining hands with media to malign another co-actor’s image is obnoxious or not? Well…we are not being judgmental…you folks are best to take a call on it… Disclaimer: Any content appearing under ‘Gossip’ section is purely gossip and TellyChakkar.com does not comply with the same.
